The Quantum
Quantum is a tradition of Xavier Computer Enthusiasts' League (XCEL) of Xavier University since 1994. It is a pure competition participated by different schools in Mindanao. Its main objectives are to test the level of knowledge and literacy of high school students on Computer and Information Technology, and to develop a science and technology culture among the youth.
Quantum is composed of two segments. First are the MS Paint and the Photoshop Competition which will be participated by one grade school and one high school student as representatives of each school. Second is the Quiz Show which is exclusive for high school students consisting of two bona fide students from each school.

This is usually a two-day and one-night activity which comprises of sessions and discussions on IT-related topics with distinguished resource speakers. Fellowship or social night is usually held in the evening with delightful performances from the delegates. Giving out of certificates to the delegates wraps up the convention.
